There's a new crew at Highland and just very helpful! Tom and his team were great! Have had three…read moredifferent deliveries and all on time, efficient and went the extra mile to help me out! A shout out to worker Chris! Thank You! I will be back!

Yikes...I should have paid attention to all the negative reviews…read more I went prepared though....limited my questions, was polite, and had my measurements for the amount of mulch I needed. But, I soon felt like I was in the Seinfeld soup episode "No soup for you". After the amount was calculated, I had a few more questions regarding delivery ...and was quickly met with an exhasperated "are you buying today?" from the older "gentleman" at the counter. I said I was getting all the info today and I needed to go home to check on the size of the tarp I had to hold the mulch as well as whether I wanted black or brown mulch. Then, I asked if I could call in the order and pay by cc. My intent, all along, was to purchase from Highland Farm as I live in the area and didn't want to shop farther out and did want to support a local business. I was not disputing the cost of the mulch or delivery charges he quoted me at all. When I asked if he could write down the price/delivery for both the brown and black mulch for me , that's when things went south. He refused, saying something about me just going home and not returning or some nonsense about me holding him to the price(?). He declared I'd get the price again when I called or came back. Huh? I was stunned, but remained silent and decided not to engage with this sour, unpleasant man. I simply said ok, thank you, and left. In the end I purchased the mulch elsewhere where I was treated with respect, and paid less for both the mulch and delivery. It, however,was never about the cost, but the, rude, undeserved treatment I received. Granted I didn't't go there looking to become a "friend" but, come on... Who treats customers like that? Never again... ,

All the people that work here are extremely nice. It is such a cute fall spot to stop into wether…read moreit be to pick pumpkins, corn maze or stop at the store. They do not take card so bring some cash. I usually tend to stop for pumpkins, apple cider and the apple donuts. They are rather on the more expensive side.

On a mild early fall day, a nice way to welcome the harvest season is a visit to Spring Hill Sugar…read moreHouse to watch the old-fashioned cider press in operation and better still, quaff down some of that freshly squeezed and refreshingly crisp cider. Their cider is some of the best in the area - I don't know what blend of apples they use, but it works well with a nice balance of sweet and tart. While there, you might as well pick up a few pumpkins and gourds, corn stalk sheaves, and colorful Indian corn (my favorite fall decorations), and if so inclined, tromp through the corn maze. The place is wonderfully bucolic and scenic on a sunny day, and a lot of fun for the youngsters to pick out their favorite pumpkins. There used to be a herd of llamas there, but sadly, SHSH is only down to one this year. It's also nice to visit in late winter, around February, when the tree sap is running, and watch them sugar off - terrific maple syrup can be had here (and quieter in the winter with more time to chat with the proprietors). A quaint and charming old-time New England tradition.

It was a mistake to try Simply Local Wood. I should have read the reviews. On the plus side, they…read moredelivered quickly. On the down side, Simply Local Wood only delivered 3/4 cord - but I paid for a full cord of kiln-dried. 395 plus 59 delivery charge for a total of 454. I sent them the below pictures and asked them to come take a look. They said they would, but then said they would not, telling me that the wood they delivered was "sufficient." I asked for a partial refund and they declined. Essentially Simply Local Wood screwed me out of $100. Other issues (kinda nitpicky): log length is not uniform. Ranges in size from 7" to 17". Most fell within the 14-16" range, but there were wayyy more shorties than 17s! The shorties were doubled up where possible, and used to fill gaps. Wood was not screened, so there were two trash barrels of bark and dirt left over on my gravel driveway. Pics are below. It's easy enough to do the math. The length of the pile is 20', the width of the pile is 1.333 and the height on the right side of the pile is 4.8'. The big gap on the left where the wood is missing - that is how much Simply Local Wood screwed me.

i got my wood on Tuesday, this is the easiest wood to burn, it's great. I've had a wood burning…read morestove since the early 1980's. this is what heats my home so I know wood. I have a whole cord that was given to me as a birthday present and I could barely make it burn had to keep throwing in firer burners in it to keep in going did that for 2 days. I stopped, I found Simply LocalWood and bought 1/2 cord of wood. I couldn't believe it. I put in a little fat wood a little paper I put in wood I got, it literally started blazing in about 15 minutes and it never went out til it died a great death. All I had to do was take out the ashes. I will be a Simply Local Wood customer as long as I can burn wood. I will tell everyone I know about this company and how they season their wood, they bake it in ovens to take the sap out of the wood and that is why it catches fire so fast and doesn't stop til it's a pile of ashes. I've been burning wood for over 40 years, never heard of baking wood but it's the best way to go if you don't want keep fighting to try to keep your fire burning. Give Simply Local Wood a try you won't be sorry. Really you will feel great knowing that you won't have to worry about unseasoned wood not burning again. I am now a customer for life. Patricia Perry
